Skinny & Co. Coconut Oil

::: press sample / affiliate links :::

There is always something 'trendy' in the beauty world, with most rends having a short lifespan, but one that doesn't seem to be going anywhere is coconut oil. I think many were skeptical of it's magical, do-it-all status, but once you try but, it's hard to deny it's greatness. While there are a ton of variates and brands, Skinny Coconut & Co. is doing things a little differently. Intrigued? Read on!

I know what you're thinking, how can coconut oil be different? Well, I can tell you just that. Unlike other brands that utilize high heat to process their oil, Skinny & Co. Coconut Oil is a raw product. Their internationally exclusive extraction uses no heat to extract, rather cooling the coconut to release the oil. Skiiny & Co. Coconut Oil also happens to be the only raw & alkaline coconut oil on the market.

Each jar of coconut oil is made from 12 coconuts that are wild harvested from the jungles of Vietnam. The coconuts are hand-pickedand
transported directly to the Skinny & Co. plant. Once cracked open, the coconut meat is put into a
closed-loop, dehumidifying Nutralock system that extracts the moisture
without heat, leaving all of the raw nutrients of the coconut intact.

If you've never used coconut oil. you need to! It's a pretty great multi-use product. You can eat it- plop in your coffee, or spread it on toast, cook and bake with it as you would any other oil or butter. Of course, it's a great beauty item too and works as an all over face and body moisturizer- great on lip and cuticles too! It can be used as a hair treatment or conditioner, makeup remover, and there is also oil pulling. Basically, you can use it for almost anything.

Overall, I love this coconut oil! The fact that it is raw means you get more of the natural coconut smell and taste which I really like. I have been using the oil for a bit of everything, but I especially love how well it can remove waterproof mascara and long lasting liquid lipsticks with such ease. Skinny & Co Coconut Oil and coconut products products are available directly from their website and the pots featured in this post are also available from Sephora. Are you a coconut oil fan? What do you use it for?
